How I will Deal with the 370Z "Problems/Concerns"

I'm assuming you wanted some sorta feedback otherwise you wouldn't have posted. And since I have time...

OIL TEMP ISSUE
No idea of this will be an issue for you. But as you mentioned, I wouldn't be too worried about it. But I'd advise anyone to atleast go through a summer monitoring it before committing to a cooler.

FUEL GUAGE ISSUE
I've had my car lower than a quarter tank and never encoountered it. Must have been a REALLY hard turn. I think if you can keep 4 wheel on the ground you'll be ok.

PAINT ISSUE
Sigh...yeah get the clear bra...

BOSE SYSTEM
I'm happy with the Bose. I realize it won't be the center of showroom but more than adequate. I think most of the people simply realize you could spend the money on aftermarket and still have some left over for others things

FUEL PRICES
True.

CABIN NOISE
Subjective. I'v never had an issue with conversations.

BREAK-IN PERIOD
I followed break in, but to each thier own. I've heard both and I've never seen a case where either caused engine failure.

FIGURING OUT START/STOP BUTTON
LOL. Push lightly and release. You don't need to hold it until the engine turns over. I say this cause it was porbably 6+ months until I figured it out.

HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATING
The only time I get any type of hesitation is during a really hot day and my ac is on and even then its sporadic.

And because I failed to mention it at the beginning...Gratz on the new car! You're gonna love it!
